This section allows users to create, edit, remove and validate API keys. An API token is a unique identifier of an application requesting access to a service. It is utilized when you use REST API endpoints for sending requests and retrieving data.

You need an authorization token to make requests from API endpoints. See your administrator for access to full API. The REST API Keys section allows you to add, modify, validate and remove a key. You can copy the API token from the Value column for a key.

To make requests and updates using a REST API endpoint, you need to use curl from the command line or a GUI-based software like Postman. See Test REST API using Postman or Curl.

This section allows users to create new accounts, enable or disable accounts and modify topics, view the API key, reset the account and remove the account.
